Description

A super simple mobile phone with 4 speed dial memory
buttons only - ideal for those who need a mobile phone for
security but don't make many calls!

The Doro Secure 580 is a durable and splash-proof mobile phone
with four speed dial keys for calling the people you need to stay
in contact with in one simple press.
This phone is great for an elderly relative or someone who
struggles to use a conventional phone or to remember phone
numbers.

There is the option to create a 'Whitelist' where the phone will
only accept incoming calls from pre-approved numbers. This is an
important feature for vulnerable individuals or those who receive a
lot of nuisance calls.

Feel even safer thanks to an assistance button and a safety
timer that can automatically dial up and send an SMS alarm to
pre-set numbers, along with GPS localisation information to let
people know where you are.

This phone replaces the popular Doro HandlePlus 334. The Secure
580 has all the same functions plus new features which include: GPS
data with SOS alarm, colour display with high contrast themes,
improved handling, splash proof, HD voice and remote managing via
Doro Manager.

In the opinion of our evaluation panel, this unique phone has
loads of fantastic features. We particularly like the ability to
create a Whitelist to restrict incoming nuisance calls. You can
also set up an auto-reply for received text messages which tells
people that the phone cannot send outgoing messages, plus the
Safety Timer which gives peace of mind to vulnerable people who
still want to live independently. A recommended choice for people
with visual impairment or memory loss.

For ease of use, this mobile phone cannot send text messages
(although it can receive them so you can get Pay As You Go balance
messages etc). It is possible to set up an automatic reply to
inform people that they will not get a response by text.

TheSecure 580 has soft touch surfaces for optimised grip, keypad
lock and a high quality colour display. The answer and hang up
buttons are large, clear and easy to use, as are the 4
memories.

Ideally the Secure 580 should be set up for the user by a
friend or relative. Because the Secure 580 has no conventional
keypad, programming requires a little patience and can be fiddly
but is relatively straightforward and is well-explained in the
instructions. It is also possible to register for an online Doro
Manager account and set-up and manage the Secure 580 remotely. This
is easier and saves time but it will use 3G to sync with the phone
which can be expensive if you don't have an internet data allowance
as part of your mobile phone contract.

The Doro Secure 580 has an SOS emergency button on the back. To
make an emergency call, press and hold the key on the back - this
will cause the phone to send your pre-programmed SOS emergency SMS
text message to all numbers in the Emergency numbers list (max. 5).
It will then dial the first number on the list. If the call isn't
answered within 30 seconds, the next number is dialled. Dialling is
repeated 3 times or until the call is answered. Note - the
emergency call function can be turned off. The Secure 590 also has
the added feature of a Safety Timer. This is ideal for times when
you are doing 'risky' activities such as walking the dog or taking
a shower. If the timer is not turned off within the allotted time,
the SOS alert will automatically trigger. This phone is the perfect
solution for giving peace of mind to relatives, as users can now be
reachable and can call family or carers while enjoying an
independent lifestyle.

Due to it's robust design and well spaced, tactile buttons, the
Doro Secure 580 is ideal for people with visual impairment, memory
loss or who simply struggle with handling conventional mobile
phones.

Key features

3G network

GPS ensures fast and accurate position information (only when
alert message is sent to a smartphone)

This phone is supplied unlocked and SIM-Free. You will need
to arrange for a micro-SIM card (the new smaller kind) from a
mobile phone network operator for use with this phone. If you are
planning on using the remote Doro Manager feature we recommend you
talk to your mobile phone operator about including an internet data
allowance.

The Doro Secure® 580 only accepts a micro SIM card.

A range of accessories for use with this phone are available to
purchase separately - see Associated Items on the right.
